February 2008 Report -- More Dollars Saved!

It's been a busy couple of months since my last post.

First -- the good news: I've been contacted by four more people since the first of the year with questions about my experience with the International Speakers Network. I shared my story with them and each one has decided against doing any business with these money-stealing bozos. I saved them each about $600, right? You do the math.

Second -- more good news: I was contacted by some people who run workshops for people who want to be speakers. They have a great blog called Hidden Speaker Treasures of the Internet. They asked if they could use my experience to present at a conference they would be giving in San Francisco this month. Perhaps that's why the counter on this blog went up so high so quickly? Happy to be of service. If I kept even more people who have not contacted me from spending their hard earned money, it's worth sharing my story.

Third - still more good news: Knowing the ISN would not be helping me after all, I began searching the internet for conferences that focus on the topics I can speak to. I'm happy to report I've had some success. I have seven talks booked between now and October and bites on two more. There is life after the International Speaker's Network.

Bad news? yes, of course. I have not heard one single word from David Wright or Brenda Keefer or Greg Wright or any of the rest of them. They still have all my money and they have left me with nothing but the knowledge that karma will get them.

What goes around comes around ISN.... I hope even more people find this blog and save their money. At least I hope they don't give it to you.
